OVERVIEW
=========
The 14th International Workshop on Network and Systems Support for Games 
(NetGames 2015) will be held at the University of Zagreb, Zagreb, 
Croatia on December 3-4, 2015. NetGames brings together researchers and 
practitioners from academia and industry across the globe to present 
their latest research on the challenges of today's networked games, and 
to further understand the requirements and explore the possibilities of 
future generations of networked games. NetGames will also have a keynote 
and panel discussions with participants (or invited talks) from both 
academia and industry. Submissions are solicited on all aspects of 
networked games, including (but not limited to):

- Scalability, cloud support, client-server, P2P, and mobile 
architectures
- Efficient message distribution and network protocol design
- Latency issues and lag compensation techniques
- Network traffic measurement and modeling
- System benchmarking, performance evaluation, and provisioning
- Operating system enhancements, service platforms, and middleware
- Massively Multiplayer Online Gaming (MMOG)
- Multiplayer usability and user behavior studies
- Personal communications and conferencing in games
- Mobile games, resource-constrained systems, and context-based 
adaptation
- Quality of service, quality of experience, and system/content 
adaptation
- Dynamic and user-generated content authoring and management
- Security, authentication, accounting and digital rights management
- Cheat detection and prevention
- Social networking in multiplayer games
- Data analytics and visualization support for game research


SUBMISSIONS & FORMATTING
=========================
NetGames 2015 welcomes long papers to be presented in the single-track 
program, short papers reporting work-in-progress to be presented with a 
poster during the poster and demo session, and demos showing original 
research prototypes.

Reviews will be single-blind; authors must include their names and 
affiliations on the first page. Papers should not be under review at 
another venue nor previously published elsewhere. Submission of a paper 
for review will be considered your agreement that at least one author

Accepted and presented papers will be published in the workshop 
proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore, ACM DL, as well as other 
Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases.

All papers must be submitted according to the IEEE Conference 
Proceedings format with the following length requirements:
